Friday Fun: What happened with the #BreakfastClub crew on Monday?

Was talking about this on Twitter earlier today, and thought it might be a fun topic for discussion/speculation here after the last several weeks of depressing news. A question often asked of the cast and crew of the movie “The Breakfast Club” is what happened with the crew of unlikely allies when Monday rolled around. Did they speak to each other in the hallway? Did Claire and Bender openly declare their love? Did Andy and Allison start dating? Did Brian become respected by the popular crowd? For those of you who haven’t seen the 1985 cult classic, here’s a primer.

Ready, set, go! Give it your best shot. This is not a trick question. In reality, no one really knows.

If I remember correctly, the movie gave you a glimpse of everyone at school that next Monday. For the most part, everyone slid back into their previous slots. One or two of them tried to continue the ‘club’, but got brushed off by the rest.

Claire and Allison became pregnant and unable to finish school because of draconian budget cuts which resulted in a lack of government-provided birth control. Bender joined the military and died in Iraq in an illegal war for oil. Andy was targeted by the CIA because of his efforts in fighting the growing threat of global warming climate change and is being held in Gitmo without trial. Brian came out and committed suicide because of bullying by the Moral Majority.

(Trying to think like a Hollywood producer involves pretending you have the IQ of a turnip! ) :d

It actually ends with all of them going home after the detention, parents picking them up, etc. The last shot is Bender throwing his fist in the air while walking across a football field.

I remember because I really liked the closing Simple Minds song…
kinda like a really liked the closing Modern English song in ‘Valley Girl’. Man, those 80’s and the music… never get that back again. :)
